america is an exception objectively compared to other western democracies. for example, america is today the only western nation to still have the death penalties or to lack universal health care system and these are assets of what american exceptional but they are not inherently good or bad or it depends on what people think of the death penalty or universal health care. what i argue in the book, is extraordinary polarization of american society today, the dimension meant because americans are clashing on a broad-raping of issues which are not controversial, such as people can have a basic right to health care, whether special interests should be allowed to spent unlimited money on political campaigns and on lobbying. whether clay mite change is a scientific reality or a hoax, whether women should have a right to abortion, whether contraception should be covered by people's health insurance, whether to teach only sexual education or comprehensive education in southern schools. whether to have the death penalty, whether to have mass incarceration. these are

with a few exceptions that's going to make everyone's ears perk up.the 2013 miss universe pageant. we knew about that. the president sold a property in 2008, florida property to a russian billionaire. we did know about that. the final exceptions would be ordinary course sales of goods and services to russian entities. is this helping, doug? does this help? >> possibly. what i mean by that is if you wanted to disstraktd from the james comey news, there's no shinier object for the press than the tax returns which he's never going to release. but i think more importantly, kate, is what president trump tweeted about maybe you shouldn't listen to my white house communications team at all. i can tell you as a former press staffer, i've been very fortunate when i've made a dumb come meant, believe me, my bosses have backed me up to the hilt. this white house has had a lot of crises, but not a lot of true crises. when that crisis hit, sean spicer, sarah huckabee sanders, they need support. the president hurt them. that's a real challenge for the white house.

ruth bader ginsburg is the exception.any liberals, they are jewish justices am a for example, like brandeis. let's say brandeis and frankfurter even, in the early days he did not know enough about judaism to know the predisposition for helping the poor was coming from a tradition they really do not understand. but they were all nominated by liberal democratic presidents. get -- ruth bader ginsburg has written about this. this is in their dna. -- not all, but most of them are dissented from strongly religious families. stronglyscended from religious families. ruth bader ginsburg, she was the rabbi atbi --the camp her summer camp.

your position, it's that the den exception only applies to individual visa denials? >> no, i don't think so at all. i think den applies to the same full scope as mandel, to say challenges to the exclusion of aliens abroad, whether those exclusions are the congress, the president, statute or executive order, mandel has governed those kind of charges. and the difference between den is that den requires some affirmative showing of bad faith n this context i think it ought to be a really high one so it's not just a wide-ranging de novo inquiry. >> if we can conclude that the district court applied the wrong standard, the government's position is that it should be mandel, correct? >> that's right. >> shouldn't we send it back to the district court to apply mandel and to see if they can make out an affirmative case? >> you could send it back, judge hawkins. plaintiffs haven't sought additional discovery here. we have a record and know what the statements were as a matter of fact. i think this court is as well placed as the district court to look at those statements and det

so i understand your position, -- onlye men exception applies to individual visa denials? >> no not at all. think it applies to the same. as mandell, which is to say, challenges to the exclusion of aliens abroad. whether those exclusion/are in congress or the president, statute, ordinance second of order, mandell has always governed those types of challenges. the difference between -- these different types of inquiries there's -- the wires that we have a affirmative showing of bad faith. in this context about to be a high one so it isn't just a wide into subjective motivation. >> if we could quote that the district court applied the wrong standard, your government's position as it should be manned up, correct? >> correct. >> should we send it back to the district court to apply it command to see of plaintiffs can make out an affirmative case of bad faith? >> you could send it back, but i we have a record, we know what the statements were. think this court is is well-placed -- as a district court to look at those statements against determined in the absence of testimony or

what does the bad faith exception due under mandel? and what is the purpose and great look like under macquarie county? i want to take on -- on the bad faith exception, courts never justiceit to be sure, kennedy and justice alito indicated it was there, but look what they said, it requires an affirmative showing of bad faith. for a seniorue one-off decision, we should require only the strongest. in order to interfere in a former national security determination of the president after consultation after multiple cabinet officials, that is remarkable thing and the barat to be very high. what we are talking about is reaching back to a handful of campaign statements were i think in fairness -- all this stuff was reaffirmed after the election. you have stuff after the election. specific to more judge kings question. shortly after the executive order two was signed, sean spicer said the principles remain the same. president trump statement concurrent with that time, you know my plans. spicer, president trump yesterday continued to deliver on
